Iraq’s oil flowing to Turkey still, but bad signs linger in the north and south of Iraq

Oil continues to flow from Kirkuk to Turkey, despite Kurdish separatist threats to blow it up as a tactic against Turkey, Simon Webb reports for Reuters.

Iraq has moved to market about 7.5 million barrels of crude from Ceyhan storage through ships and another pipeline in Turkey so far in October, the shipper said. A vessel was booked to load another million barrels on October 27, he added.
